​
Ultra-Flexible Bare Fibers
Bare Fibers, also called front-firing fibers, are a standard accessory for minimally-invasive endoscopic or laparoscopic surgery.
Main Features
-
Highest possible levels of flexibility for improved bending characteristics (e.g. for flexible endoscopes)
-
Extended resilience during use by superior inner fiber core and protective layer materials
-
Ideal beam profile at the distal end for less scattered radiation effects at tissue
Medical Applications
All medical applications related
to the application of laser energy, involving:
-
Precise cutting of tissue
-
Surface ablation of tissue
-
Coagulation of tissue and blood vessels
-
Destruction of stones
​
Harpoon Fibers
The Harpoon Fiber has a unique fiber design not comparable to other manufacturer's products.
Main Features
-
Great handling advantage to the surgeon whenever it comes to the tangential cutting of tissue, e.g. during tumor surgery
-
Not defocussing the laser energy, instead it redirects a focussed spot in an angle optimized for e.g. endoscopic surgery
-
There is no other fiber like the Harpoon Fiber available.
​
EndoRadial Fibers
The EndoRadial Fiber is an outstanding solution to surgeons whose emphasis is on vascular treatments. By a special lense system, it redirects the laser energy in a 360° angle, reliably shrinking the blood vessel.
Main Features
-
No more need for extra and difficult to handle catheter sets
-
Easy and controlled introduction into the blood vessel by a rounded distal end
-
Available in different sizes, depending on the diameter of the blood vessel
​
Sidefire Fibers
The Sidefire Fiber has become a standard tool among surgeons e.g. in Urology where the superficial ablation of soft tissue inside hollow organs is required. In an angle of about 90°, it redirects and slightly defocusses the laser energy in a way that high tissue ablation rates are achieved.
Main Features
-
Easy and controlled introduction into the endoscope by a resistant, rounded distal end
-
Adjustable integrated joystick for precision movements of the fiber
-
Extended life-times by highest material quality
